CELESTIAL FIREWORKS
The earth and the sky appear to be quite unchanging. The programme reveals that the quiet, however, is a wonderful mask that covers a wide range of violent activities that the universe harbours. Meteors burning up and meteorites creating craters on the earth, howsoever infrequent, often go unnoticed. This programme deals with a variety of explosions and implosions that punctuate the quiet existence! Comet Shoemaker-Levy9 fiercely pounding the planet Jupiter, Supernova explosions that rip apart a once-shining star, the bizarre entities known as Black Holes devouring stars are some of them. And,
the mightiest explosion of all - the Big Bang – that launched the universe itself.
